As things have bumped along this far, it seems sensible to continue not rushing. Bandcamp Fridays return after the summer, so I'm now thinking we should release this on the first one back, Friday, September 6th.

The day before my birthday, so I approve.

So, this paused while ILF paused. Partially 'cause I figured it'd be back, but also because I had never grabbed the album art before the hiatus. But now things can keet inching along.

We have tracks by:
coldbrightsunlight [do you have a title for the piece?]
moid
Paul C
Heraclitus Akimbo

The return of ILF has brought word there's something coming from cantremember, so I'm glad I waited!

More news to follow!

Oo do I have a title? I'll have a look/think!

out of curiosity, did anyone use any of my samples? i won't be bugged if not, i was just wondering.

Pretty sure I ended up with something from everyone, tho some in pretty subtle layers.

Just a heads-up for all... everyone at my work got sick this week, plus I have a big project tomorrow I'm preparing for, so the final prepwork for this was put off. For sure coming out next bandcamp Friday!

Sorry but even after loading my DAW project, with a couple of months behind me I have no idea what I used at this point (aside from one sample of Heraklitus' that was labelled with the username so I know that one)

Decided my track is called Snow Dancing.

Noted, thanks!

Wow I'm back! Sorry everyone, work has been awful (still is for that matter)... last time I checked for a few weeks ILF was dead... finally remembered to check again today and hurrah it is back in action... albeit suffering from the blues now? Blue is better than nothing though! To answer Dubkitty; my son and I used all five of your samples in our track; they are a major component of it - I think we cut them up a bit, and we may have pitched them up or down a bit to fit other sounds, but they are in there and quite audible - thanks for making them!

cool! looking forward to hearing it.

Good to see we're back

I'd stopped checking, tbh.

This is happening! Okta 5 is alive! (On Friday, that is.)

Hell yeah!

It's finally here!

Okta: Ambient Collaborations 5

A community-based ambient collaboration wherein your ILF comrades create stems/tracks, pass them around, and then assemble tracks from other contributors' sounds.

As always, name-your-price on Bandcamp, and any $$ that comes in is donated towards ILF's hosting costs! (Grab it today on Bandcamp Friday and that's a little more we'll be have for the kitty!) (Also: downloads include a special continuous mix of the full album.)

And if you don't want to download, everyone involved would also be very happy for you to just have a listen.

Looking forward to listening to this! Thanks again for organising
